Kelly the electric kettle Kelly is the
newest addition to the Li kitchen she is
a great electric kettle she boils a
kettle full of water in 20 seconds flat
a real tough task to do she is looking
forward to meeting her new friends in
the kitchen it is a bit puzzling though
that Kelly does not get a very warm
welcome when she lands on the kitchen
worktop the spoon and fork families who
are all silver giggle when they pass her
by
the ladles and spatulas who are all
black
look at her from head to toe in
disbelief the copper pots and pans tried
to avoid her as best they can the tall
crystal wine glasses look at her like
she came out of a horror movie even the
green sink sponge looks at her
disapprovingly everything about Kelly is
as you would expect a kettle to be
except for one small detail
she is neon pink from top to toe a
bright blinding sort of pink all the
kitchen things are thinking the same
thing a kettle that's pink can never be
a serious kettle Kelly is fuming mad
with whoever trying to be cool designer
made her pink kettles are usually white
black or silver
whoever heard of a pink kettle doesn't
he know how hard it would be to fit in a
kitchen that is mostly in hues of gray
silver black crystal and some green
Kellie's social life is ruined one day
the power fails in the lis household the
whole kitchen is pitch dark except for
one thing
Kelly has a slight glow around her
because of her neon pink coating so to
see what is happening around them all
the kitchen things have no choice but to
huddle around Kelly polite conversation
is a natural result when you are all
huddled so closely the kitchen crew are
not a bad bunch after all just a bit
wary of pink hellos and how do you do
start being said Kelly being the
charming person that she is get some
nice conversation going
she knows what kitchen crew members like
to talk about being scrubbed too
vigorously being subjected to extreme
heat being attacked by pets and children
among other things when the power comes
back on it does not take the kitchen
crew long to realize that apart from
being nice Kelly also does a cracking
job of boiling water
20 seconds flat even if she is pink
being pink does not make Kelly a less
serious kettle after all she is as good
as any kettle or kitchen thing but just
pink
